ABSTRACT

This is the second part of a two-part paper describing the author's recent experiences with robot control systems. In part one, the three principal robotics language philosophies were illustrated. This was followed by a discussion of unconventional languages for robot control, namely PostScript and Java. In this installment, the author describes how he used Forth as an object oriented programming language to develop a multiprocessor android control network. Some interesting Forth derivatives will be presented at the end.
